Aspen Colorado may well be in a remote area of the Rocky Mountains but as far as destinations go there is no resort that exudes more glamour and sophistication.
Aspen not only offers excellent skiing but a complete lifestyle, this resort is all about the society that congregates here for the season.
At just under 8000ft above sea level Aspen has direct access to some of the best skiing territory in the US and during the season has a huge influx of visitors that sees its tiny (but privileged) population swell, changing it from an exclusive but quiet town into a vibrant and lively winter ski resort.
The region comprises of four mountain areas – Aspen/Highlands/Buttermilk & Snowmass, which between them offer over 5000 acres of piste, the ski terrain extends into the heart of Aspen town making access to great skiing quick and easy. Off piste skiing is also well represented with over 80kms of cross country terrain that will challenge even the most capable of skiers; whether you are a beginner or an advanced skier Aspen really does have something to appeal to everyone.
Beginners have access to excellent ski schools and with 44 easy slopes on the doorstep have plenty of chance to quickly improve their skills, Buttermilk and Snowmass are particularly favoured by beginners and families and are perfect for the novice skier. For the intermediate skiers there are the long runs of Aspen Highlands to aim for but with over 130 intermediate slopes to choose from there are few restrictions on places to ski. Once an advanced level has been reached there is a staggering 156 runs that are categorised as difficult; for the really challenging skiing the heights of Ajax are the place to head and the upper reaches of Snowmass for tree skiing and off piste that will excite even the most able of skiing enthusiasts.
Aspen resort covers a huge area but the most modern of facilities make getting around easy, there are daily tours around the mountains which are led by knowledgeable volunteer hosts, this service is free but is only open to those at an intermediate level and above.
Aspen is best known as a resort where people come to be noticed, the nightlife is excellent but there are also plenty of places that are family friendly. There are over 100 restaurants to choose from ranging from burger bars to fine dining, there is also access to 15 mountain restaurants across the network of lifts and gondolas.
Other sporting activities include snow-mobiling, ice skating and dog sledding and for those that want to appreciate the beauty of the region there are organised hot air balloon trips throughout the season.
Aspen is filled with great hotels, beautiful chalets and well placed apartments, accommodation is rarely considered to be budget in this exclusive resort particularly when the travel distance from the UK is considered, most places do have the advantage of being incredibly close to great skiing with many labelling themselves as ski-in. Set in the centre of Aspen the chic Sky Hotel is not only ski in but has great access to the Gondola whilst being right at the heart of the action, the outdoor heated pool and the hot tubs make this sophisticated hotel perfect for relaxation after a day skiing.
For a more village feel then the resort of Snowmass is the perfect place to stay , the shuttle buses between the mountains and resorts ensure that access is never a problem. Snowmass not only has some excellent hotels but is also home to some of the best self catering apartment accommodation in the region.
The ski season in Aspen runs from early November until Mid April and throughout the season there is the guarantee of good snow (there are however also snow making facilities). The peak of the ski season falls across the Christmas period which although magical can be exceptionally expensive in this exclusive resort. The last few weeks of the season are the time to go if you wish to save money – although the end of the season is often the quietest time within the resort as many of the facilities are preparing to close.

Individuals who are trying to get rid of clothing or items they no longer need should consider the benefit of doing clothes donations. This could be as simple as red cross clothing pick up, or even taking the items to a center and dropping them off. Besides giving back to the community, there are many other benefits, such as a tax write off, and even having the charity come and pick up the clothes directly. Here are three benefits of Red Cross clothing pick up and making donations.

I will allow my opponent to either present his/her arguments first or to accept the challenge and allow me to present my arguments first.
First, I'm going to place a bit more solid of a definition on CaT (Cap and Trade), since "or something similar" is very vague.
CaT [1] – "Cap and trade is an environmental policy tool that delivers results with a mandatory cap on emissions while providing sources flexibility in how they comply." This is done by allowing companies that have extra "cap room" (emissions that they are allowed to emit, but have no need to) trade or sell that "cap room" to companies that do need it.
Carbon Tax [2] – "A carbon tax is a tax on the carbon content of fossil fuels (coal, oil, gas)." This is often used for when companies go above the CaT limits and do not buy cap room from other companies to offset. However, this can also be applied as a straight tax, as if the cap limit was zero.
Something similar – For this debate, something similar should be limited to meeting the following conditions.
1) Punishing (through increased costs, such as fees, fines, increased taxes, etc) companies for excessive emissions of carbons into the environment.
2) Be based on the amount of carbon emitted, rather than off of net income, property value or some other measuring stick.
3) Applies to all companies, big or small, and not just targeted industries.
If my opponent wishes, he may expand this from just companies to people as well, but this will be up to him. I do request that my opponent, in the beginning of his opening argument, mention which greenhouse gases he is wanting to debate. If it is just carbon dioxide, or if there are others. I believe the best debate can occur if we pick a handful and focus on them. Omitting any chemicals does not imply that they do not effect our environment, but simply that they are not the subject of this policy (example, if you choose to only focus on CO2, I can't say, "why not chemical X? Do you not care about bla bla bla....").
With that, I will pass this on and allow my opponent to begin his arguments.
Thank you,

[2] http://www.carbontax.org...
1)Moral argument:
A government program such as cap-and-trade for greenhouse gasses can basically be descripted as a fee on pollution that damages people's health and our environment. This fee is a moral imperative because it makes it so that corporations and groups that are harming everyone's health and environment effectively pay for the damage they cause.
A cap-and-trade system is therefor similar to traffic fines; people who drive while intoxicated or who drive recklessly are fined for this behavior because it endangers other people's lives; the same should be true for major polluters.
2)Economic argument:
Since emissions of greenhouse gasses are harmful to human health(examples include increases in cancer and autism), and the environment it means that every pound of said emissions will end up increasing health care costs and other costs associated with climate change/global warming (examples include increases in flooding and tropical storms). This means that a cap-and-trade system will provide incentives for polluters to stop emitting harmful gasses which will save the economy money.
3)Success of cap-and-trade programs already implemented.
A.Cap-and-trade isn't a new idea; America first implemented a cap-and-trade system for pollutants that cause acid rain (SO2) in the early 1990's. Analysis and the empirical evidence of the acid rain cap-and-trade shows that the compliance costs that industry groups original estimated were vastly overstated. Studies of the result of the cap and trade policy found that acid rain causing chemicals which are also hazardous to human health decreased because of the policy, and resulted in a net benefit to the economy
B.Another cap-and-trade system has been set up by a few northeastern states; this one is more relevant to the discussion at hand considering that this cap-and-trade policy is for greenhouse gasses. Analysis of the effects of this system shows that it has had a positive benefit-cost ratio and has resulted in the creation of thousands of jobs.
The first point I would like to address is the scope of this debate. My opponent has chosen for us to focus on Carbon (most commonly CO2, but not limited to that, as partially burnt hydrocarbons are also carbon gases) and Nitrous (any gas that has 3 or less nitrogen atoms in it, apart from N2. Well N2 is a Nitrous gas, but I'm not going to be so mean as to argue that). So, for the scope of this debate, we are going to be looking at Carbon (not limited to just CO2) and Nitrous, nothing else. And since this debate is "for greenhouse gases" we can ignore harmful non-greenhouse gases.
Now, I will go into my opponent's arguments.
1)The Moral Argument
My opponent claims that we have a moral and ethical responsibility to make companies pay if they are harming the people of their society. Under this moral argument, such a CaT policy must also target individuals, since if they are harming the people of society, they too must pay (you cannot argue that companies harm people, but that other do not without invoking special pleading). I accept this moral argument, because I too believe that if you harm someone, you should have to pay to remedy that harm.
Next, my opponent claims that this is no different than fining people who drive while intoxicated or recklessly. Unfortunately, this is not an accurate analogy. Remember, CaT means that a company that is tossing out a lot of pollutants can pay another company to cut their emissions so that the first company can continue. This is the equivalent of paying other drivers to drive safely so you can continue to drive recklessly. Or, since the legal limit is .08, if you're caught at .14 (legally a DUI), paying some other motorist who hasn't drank anything (and so at .00) for some "alcohol cap" so that you are not legally drunk until .16 bac. Obviously, such a policy would not be conducive to a safe driving society.
2)Economics argument
My opponent points to the harm of various gases. However, no sources are present, so I cannot determine which gases he is referring to. So I will just do a quick run through of common gases.
Nitrous Oxide – This is a highly powerful green house gas (about 300 times more powerful than CO2), however, its dangers become present only in significant concentrations (75%) [1]. Needless to say, 75% (what is used for anesthesia) is so far beyond the concerns of emissions, that there is no practical use of CaT for this.
Nitrogen Dioxide – This is a very dangerous chemical, however it is not a GHG, "The concentrations of the nitrogen oxides NO and NO2 and carbon monoxide (CO) are also increasing. Although these gases themselves are not greenhouse gases, they affect atmospheric chemistry…" [2].
CO2 – This is a GHG, however we find that there are no harmful effects under 20,000 and studies have shown that exposure to 6% (or 60,000 ppm) has no permanent effects [3].
Hydrocarbons – These can be any variety of partially burned oils, fuels, or alcohol. They can even been the vapors of such. These can pose serious effects. However, CaT does nothing to help in this regard, because these are best when burned completely (turned into CO2, H2O, and N2), that makes them safe, but because they are still a carbon chemical, CaT or Carbon Taxes will still penalize the company or individuals. Therefore, there is no reason for companies to want to comply (since they are still paying either way).
3)Success of CaT programs.
My opponent points to the "success" of the 1990 CaT of SO2 (along with other chemicals). However, this is questionable, at best. Sure, we can see that SO2 emissions have dropped 32% over the next 11 years, and if we stopped there, we would be able to say "success." However, we do need to dig deeper on this. If we go look at the EU for the same time frame (from 1990 to 2001), we see that they dropped their SO2 emissions by 64% [4, page 6 through 11]. And if you look at emissions per capita (rather than total) they beat the pants off of us (we dropped 51%, they dropped 79%). They also looked at emission per GDP, but that only shows more of the same (EU beating out the US). The EU used simple emission controls, rather than CaT systems [4, page 2]. It should be noted though, that both the US and EU have estimated saved money on their efforts (the US saved an estimated $77 billion a year, and the EU saved an estimated $140 billion a year)
I will now go into my arguments.
1) CaT creates a fake product.
CaT creates "emission credits" to be sold and bought. These create massive problems because they are not real. They are nothing more than an economic game of musical chairs. Once the legislation ends and the music stops, whoever is left holding the "credits" is left with nothing. This also has the serious issue with companies being created for the sole purpose of selling off their "emission credits" as a prime source of income. Or creating sub companies that each get their own annual allowance from the government. This is part of the reason that the US did not lower emissions as much as the EU did. Companies are in business for money, so one of the first things they do with regulation, is look for loopholes. Some companies will find them, and water down the success of the program.
2) Carbon based CaT will not reduce dangerous chemicals.
Since we are talking about carbon in general, and not just hydrocarbons, there is no reason to burn them completely. Let us look at a simple device that is currently on pretty much every car on US roads, the Catalytic Converter [5]. The Cat converts dangerous chemicals (such as CO, HC, and NOx) into non-dangerous chemicals (H2O, CO2, and N2). A carbon based CaT will charge you for your carbon whether it is CO2 or CO or HC (hydrocarbons), even though CO2 is, by far, the least dangerous. Now, if you're getting charged regardless, there is no longer any reason to put a cat on a car (that should be quoted) since it only adds costs. By removing the incentive (since you're charged regardless because carbon is carbon), manufacturers will drop that expense and we will have less CO2 emissions, and have more CO and HC emissions (which are far more dangerous). Any element that is subject to CaT must have a safe form that is not subject to it (for the 1990's NOx, N2 was the immune gas). CO2 is the safest carbon gas after the burning process, so for CaT to have any effect, CO2 must be immune.
3) Other options allow for superior results.
As seen in [4], command and control emissions work far better. Rather than allowing companies and people to trade credits, simply create a ceiling and rules and have fees for going over them. We can see that from 2000 to 2009, coal energy production has increased by 22%[7][8]. The creation of incentives for better energy sources is a superior option than punishing the bad sources. Natural gas releases 179.5% more usuable energy per tonne of CO2 released than coal, or that it releases 64.2% less CO2 per MWhr [6]. Also, nuclear has no CO2 emissions in the energy generation process. Coal still produces 44.9% of the USA's electricity. Changing that to NG (which is currently cheaper than coal anyway), would remove almost 5 billion tonnes of CO2 per year from US emissions.

The comparison of drunk driving of course doesn't equally compare to greenhouse gas emissions; however the same idea applies to both and that idea is that harmful activities should be reduced, and a burden should be placed on groups that do those activities.
2)Here ill post some sources of health impacts done by certain emissions (note that I am not just using CO2 but all emissions that contain Carbon)
^Air pollution from cars, and factories linked to learning/memory problems and depression.
^Rising CO2 levels responsible for increase in hay fever.
Increases lung disease/COPD, from Carbon and other pollutants.
^Fine particle matter, nitrogen dioxide, sulfa dioxide linked to pneumonia
^Nitrous oxide and other air pollutants connected to appendicitis
^Air pollution such as exhaust from cars and coal plants increases diabetes. Mice that inhaled real world concentration were more likely to have cardiovascular disease and have diabetes symptoms.
^Fine-particle pollution, or soot in the air increases obesity. Exposure to fine-particle air pollution early in life increases obesity rates even if you eat a normal healthy diet. Fine-particle air pollution also increases the chance of having unhealthy blood sugar levels. It does this by increasing inflammation of cells, which when inflammation occurs in fat cells in makes them retain more fat.
^Air pollution such as soot and smoke from power plants and automobiles can cause cardiovascular disease. Air pollutants such as soot and smoke below standards set by the EPA causes arteries to be 50% more blocked by plaque. Exposure to the air pollution also increased bad cholesterol levels, and blood pressure.
^Air pollution such as the pollution from cars, including greenhouse gasses increases the chance of NO2 having breast cancer. Women living in the most air polluted areas are twice as likely to develop breast cancer then women living in the least polluted areas.
Pollutants include NO2.
^--Children exposed to above median levels of hydrocarbons (pollutants that are released into the air by the burning of fossil fuels) had lower IQ'es of 4.5 points.
^Living near a freeway is associated with an increased risk of having children with autism.
Children born from mothers living near freeways are twice as likely to have an autism disorder.
Also exposure to mercury and other pollutants increase the risk of autism by 50%
^Mice exposed to vehicle pollution suffer brain damage.
3)Now I'll list other negative effects greenhouse gasses cause
1)An increase in waters acidity which results in lower fish/wildlife populations
2)An increase in grasshopper habitat and population which damages crops
3)An increase in mosquito habitat and populations which increase the spread of several disease such as malaria.
4)A sea level increase due to global warming.
5)Ozone depletion which allows more harmful UV lights etc .
6)Increase in tropical storms (100%), tornadoes (30%), floods (500%), droughts (300%), heat waves, wildfires(400-650%).
7)Decrease in crop/food yields (including a 20% drop in oyster populations, a 3.8% drop in corn yields, a 5.5 drop in wheat yields and a 15% drop in some rice yields) (note sources will be posted upon request.)
4)Here is my analysis of your argument that we should not have a Cap-and-trade (or an emissions tax). You don't oppose cap-and-trade because you oppose limiting greenhouse gas emissions, you oppose it because you find that "Europe's method," has better results. Given that we have SO2 for a decent example of the effects of both methods we should be able to determine which system is better, and you have. Europe's method clearly works significantly better. So basically right here I am conceding the debate, and will point out two more things.
1)Europe's method was a mandated reduction of the pollutant for all polluters.
2)Even though Europe's method worked better and should be put into place over cap-and-trade, cap-and-trade would still be better than having no policy.
Thank you for debating; I learned something and appreciated it immensely.
That said, going over my opponent's sources, none of them address CaT. In fact, several of them support arguments that I've made. Since CaT is focused around Carbon, including carbon dioxide, there is no reason to spend resources to burn hydrocarbons into CO2 (this was made in my arguments, point 2). My opponent's sources show that hydrocarbons are far more dangerous to our bodies than CO2, and if companies have no reason to convert HC into CO2, then many companies will simply save the cost and let HC go into the air, and buy carbon credits to offset that. This will cause the air to become MORE dangerous.
As I also mentioned before, the only reason that the 1990 clean air act (which established CaT for NOx and Sulfur) was effective, was because sulfur was an unintended byproduct (whereas Carbon is a required byproduct) and because N2 was emitted from the regulations, giving companies a safe chemical to fall back on. For carbon based gases, CO2 is the safest and so would have to be excluded for any results to be seen.
I would argue that the effects of CO2 (and global warming) are exaggerated, however, regardless, if the effects truly are that bad, then the policy that yields better results is only more strongly supported.
As my opponent has said, "Given that we have SO2 for a decent example of the effects of both methods we should be able to determine which system is better, and you have. Europe's method clearly works significantly better. So basically right here I am conceding the debate, and will point out two more things," I'll end this round shortly.
In summary, CaT is better than no policy at all, however, if given a grade, it is more of a C-, while the European model would be given an A (probably an A-, but I'll be generous). Given this information, it is clear that there is no reason to adopt a CaT policy when a superior policy is available.
Thank you,
^On average there are 3 oil spills similar to size and damage as the Gulf Oil one in 2010, also there are on average 6 minor oil spills every single year. Meaning On average oil spills very conservatively will cost the world economy at least 250 billion every 10 years.
^ A Harvard study shows that Mountaintop coal mining increases health costs by 75 billion a year, or 9 times more than the benefits of the mining.
Tropical storms have increased by 100% because of global warming
Droughts. Droughts have increased by 300% since 1970 because of global warming.
Floods have increased by 500%
^Hotter nights/Global warming, and air pollution are linked to a 15% decline in rice yields.
^Farms produced 3.8% less corn, and 5.5% less wheat then they could of during 1980-2008 due to slightly higher temperatures. This increased corn prices by 6.4% and wheat by 18.9%.
^Global warming cost 21 billion a year in 2009 due to decreased corn yields.
^Global warming cost 40 billion a year in 2009 due to decreased wheat yields.
^Global warming cost 20 billion in the year 2009 due to decreased rice yields
^Number of tornadoes has increased by 30% due to global warming.
^Global warming's increase in wildfires costs 1.2 billion yearly.
^Global Warming has increased the odds of heat waves by 6 times.
1^CO2 emissions killing off fish/water life due to CO2 making bodies of water more acidic. This is because CO2 + H2O ====> H2CO3
^Global warming responsible for increase in mosquito habitat and populations which has increased malaria and other diseases killing people and increasing health care costs. This is because mosquitos thrive in warmer weather

St. Patrick's Day, celebrated every 17th day of March, is probably one of the liveliest holidays in America that is ironically originated from another country. It was in Ireland where St. Patrick introduced Christianity. He then became the patron saint of Ireland after his death.
After a wave of massive migration from Ireland to America in the 1600s, the celebration of his feat is still very much alive and celebrated in style. Today, a lot of people, especially those of the Irish descent, look forward to celebrating St. Patrick's Day by wearing green, imbibe, and enjoy various parades. Below is a list of the places to be to experience the best St. Patrick's Day.
1. New York, N.Y. – As the most populous city in the U.S., the Big Apple takes pride in hosting the country's largest St. Patty's Day parade and celebration.
2. Chicago, Il. – Chicago's parade is a just one of many celebrations during their Irish-themed weekend that involves participants dyeing the nearby river green.
3. Boston, Mass. – This is where the first parade of St. Pat's day was ever held. As many as one quarter of all of Boston's citizens with Irish decent attend.
4. San Francisco, California – From coast-to-coast, distance is never an excuse for Irish ancestry or Irish lovers to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. This includes those residing in the Bay Area. They rock a huge parade in honor of St. Patrick's Day.
Did your city make the list? How do you choose to celebrate St. Patrick's Day?

Security Increase at CHS
A sudden alter was made that changed students everyday life at Clayton High School. New emails that students have to get adjusted to are causing an increase in security.
September 6, 2017
The students at the District of Clayton were notified just seven short days before the end of summer about a change they were not expecting. This change was the alter for a more randomized username for every student's email address in the district. This new and improved online security altered the day to day function of every student at CHS.
In previous years, the student email usernames were simply the first and last name of students with claytonschools.net attached to the end. However, this email setup created many problems for both the faculty and students at the high school.
One of the complications with the old email system is that students and staff who have the same name can get mixed up, and thus students or teachers can receive private information.
"Suddenly we find students are getting confidential information sent to them," CHS educational technologist Gene Gladstone said.
The main problem with the old email addresses is the security of the students. Although the previous email was watched by the district through the staff, there are still flaws in the system.
"Students, even though they shouldn't, tie social media and phone numbers into their account. A person who has bad intentions at mind could very easily get into somebody's email account, social media feeds and get in contact with students they shouldn't," CHS teacher Justin Seiwell said.
A simple change eliminated these problems. The usernames and therefore online identity of students were altered in order to protect the privacy and security of students through the random digits added to the usernames.
Jeff Puls, the chief technology officer of the school district of Clayton, said "adding those two digits at the end, which are randomized, helps to protect student from being contacted by people who don't know them."
While it resolves security issues, many students find that the email change produced a new problem. Small changes in students' everyday lives can cause frustration among students.
"It felt unreasonable to just change everyone's emails, I was frustrated with the change and wanted to know why it's just something I didn't want to deal with." said a student of Clayton High School.
The new email also forwards emails from the previous email address to help student adjust to this new change. This forwarding process is only temporary. The forwarding proceeds for about a semester for ninth to eleventh graders, and for seniors the rest of the school year.
"at that point, if you are still using your old email account they are going to get bounced back. This gives you some time to think about, well who will I need to contact," says Puls.
In the end, small memorization difficulties and a few calls to change a person's email is nothing compared to the complete online safety of students at Clayton High School.

Question about Garmin StreetPilot 2610 GPS Receiver
My Garmin map sometimes freezes, the unit is only a few weeks old and was replaced for a unit that was doing the same. I have reset the unit and updated the software as advised by Garmin but it still happened afterwards. Is there something i could be doing wrong any advice would be appeciated.
Posted by matt_shaw807 on
I have a Garmin 760T Sat Nav and the mapping keeps freezing. The unit continues to voice navigate and everything else works but the mappimg diagram itself freezes. I had this problem with another unit and this was a replacement for it i cant beleive i would get another unit with the same problem and wondeed if there is something I am doing wrong.
Thanks for the advice, however i dont have a memeory card within the unit.
Hi and welcome to FixYa,
Since most (if not all) of the possibilities have been forwarded, may I offer remote possibilities:
Posted on Dec 01, 2008
I would go on here http://www.garmin.com/garmin/cms/site/us/support/supportcontact and ring them and if have only just got you can take it back
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
You may have recieved another bad unit, it happens more often than you would think. try replacing the unit again. if it does it again then there may be some type of interference affecting it, i.e. cell phone, vehicle computer system...
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
From all indications it looks like its a device issue. I would suggest you wait for an updated firmware from Garmin then update to that. Report the problem with garmin and request a firmware that will fix that. The fact that 2 units experience the same problem means that its a permanent device issue that can only be solved by a firmware that fixes the specific problem which only Garmin can provide.

You need to reset the nuvi, follow these steps:
Turn the nuvi off and on again. If this does not help, slide the POWER key to the left and hold for 8 seconds. Turn the nuvi back on. The nuvi should operate normally.
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
PS, the nuvi received a new update in October of 2008. If you have not downloaded this, you need to do so. Follow this link:
The Garmin has an internal memory, call Garmin to see if you can have that upgraded. Usually, when a computer freezes up, one of the reaons is lack of memory to support the data. Otherwise, return your Garmin for a different model. If you want the same model, ask and make sure you be replaced with a brand new one, not a refurbished model. Those are prone to have little bugs and defective areas in them.
Tried some other batteries. Try to change the battery.
Typical battery life of 4 AA alkaline batteries in the Garmin 12 is 24 hours. Weather below
freezing quickly drains alkaline batteries, so lithium batteries are recommended for cold
conditions. All Garmin 12 series contain an interior backup battery to preserve data when the four AA batteries are
removed. This backup battery has a 3 month lifespan on its own, but is rechargeable from the main batteries, so
keep AA batteries installed in the Garmin at all times.
good luck
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
it will hapen only for 2 reasons
1.low memory power
2.network operator settings/or slow gprs
so please check it....thank u.......
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
If this is the second unit that you have had replaced tells me that the problem could be generic with that model GPS.
Because of this i would take it back, get a refund and go buy a Tomtom instead
king regards
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
yes you do get alot of units that develop the same problems, you are doing nothing wrong at all, the fact that you don't have a memory card is nothing to do with the problem.
Try perform a reset of the unit, there could be a glitch in the firmware
Garmin diagnostics screen / reset
When you're at the main screen, hold your finger on the time in the
upper right corner for more than 5 seconds, and you'll get to an info
screen, and back/next buttons lower right of screen.
There's some sound diagnostics, and screen tests, and lots of info
pages - including one with some battery status/statistics. To get out
of the diagnostic mode, power cycle your unit...and when you do this,
it will take some time to lock on to satellites.

hope this helps
If you have performed reset and the problem still persists its obvious that there is a major fault with the unit, like i said you have done nothing wrong and the unit may have to be replaced
i may have the soloution you need
Hi again Matt, go here and reinstall the units software:
hope this one helps you
There are only to home remedies to fix this problem.One is a hard reset which you have alreasy tried and the other is to update the firmware which you have already tried.
You will have to get this repair because it is a hardware issue.
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
I think, some times unit is not getting proper GPS signal through its internal antenna so signal processing got freezes. Please check GPS
signal strength bar (on top left of screen) is ok. If its not full, then use external antenna.
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
Try charging the gps by an external charger through the USB
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
You have mentioned that it is freezing sometimes may be its due to weak signal at that particular location . Your antenna connection might be loose or it might have been damaged . Try with external antenna if this works then you need to replace internal antenna .
If you are using same memory card, it can be a faulty memory card.
Try a replacement memory card.
If you are connecting the module to a different device, then the connection cable or the other device may be the problem.
Posted on Nov 30, 2008
If you are installing additional software, or always the same maps, and using the same memory card, then one of them can be the problem.
Reset the nuvi to factory settings following the procedure on the user manual , and see if you can get rid of the problem.
Reset the unit, holding the power button to the left for 10 seconds then let go of the switch to restart the unit.
there are many factory problems with 760, see here:nuvi 760 - won't turn on - gps Discussion Forum
if the reset does not work call them back.
Since there is zero you can do this fix this send it back, this is a program fault, I know I have the same Garmin.

Alessia's ROCE
"ROCE" is a traditional ceremony held couple of days prior to the Mangalorean Catholic Wedding, a ritual of hot water bath taken with anointing of oil and application of coconut milk on the bride/groom at their respective homes. 'ROCE' is a Konkani word that symbolizes purity, just like the white milky fluid that flows out, while grinding a coconut. This ceremony marks the beginning of wedding celebrations and signifies the last bath that the bride or the groom will be taking in their bachelorhood/spinsterhood.
We had an opportunity to shoot the ROCE ceremony of Ms. Alessia in Bengaluru. The decorations at the venue were done to give a traditional Managalorean look :)
After the prayers, the Roce ceromony began. Coconut milk was applied on the bride right from the crown of her head to the sole of her feet, while chanting some short verses known as vovyo's in konkani.
The ceremony was followed by a DJ/Dance, the couple had a lot of fun with friends and family :)

Northern Cardinal - Repeating Sacred Messages
Courtship and partnership, creating close ties with someone, arguing and disagreements, staking out your territory, repeating what was said to you (including sacred, spiritual messages), connection to the root chakra and survival, finding it difficult to distance yourself from the way things were done, learning, memory, taking advantage of others without their knowledge, being able to get what you want, a great locus of personal power and confidence.
General Description:
The northern cardinal (sometimes called the red cardinal or redbird) is a songbird found throughout North America, the male is brightly coloured, the female drabber. The northern cardinal uses its song primarily to define its territory; because its songs are learnt, they are different from place to place. They feed on grains, fruits, blossoms, elm bark, insects and will take advantage of holes dug by sapsuckers; in order to eat maple sap.

Let's take you back in time to the year 2000 when the VMA's was perfect.
This Sunday, you will expect racy outfits and a lot of crop tops.
Also expect skin-tight or "barely there" costumes when artists come to perform on stage.
Let's take it back to a time where all this was just starting but remains our favorite moment in music.
The 2000s brought so many great artists and tracks that are the throwback music we have today. The VMA's at this time was one on the main events that we looked forward to. The millennium brought out the best artists who inspired the original scantily-clad costumes of today. Back then, those costumes were the best. Nothing was off-limits in the 2000s and we really miss it. Since we can't actually hop in a time machine, we'll just bring the memories to you.
Go through the whole article to throw it back to the 2000s.
With just a week to go until MTV's 2015 Video Music Awards, there's no better way to celebrate than by worrying about Y2k, breaking out the trucker hats, and turning back the clock to the year 2000.
Eminem's quest to find "The Real Slim Shady"
In one of the most memorable VMA moments in history, Rage Against the Machine bassist Tim Commerford took his band's name to heart and climbed the stage to protest Limp Bizkit winning Best Rock Video for "Break Stuff."
Britney Spears doing it again, Fedora, nude sequined get-up and all, the pop princess put on an epic performance of "Oops!…I Did It Again," remixing the jam with The Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction."
- The Indie Talent of Krish Ashok
- Doomtree's 'Heavy Rescue'
- Western Massachusetts Indie Rock Arrivals
The VMAs didn't forget about Dre -Â Dr. Dre beat out DMX, Eve, Jay Z, and his pal Eminem to nab the high honor of accepting his Moonman from the unlikely pairing of Moby and Pink.
The 17th annual VMAs brought millennium favorites Britney Spears, her then-boyfriend Justin Timberlake, Aaliyah, Blink-182, and Destiny's Child to New York City's Radio City Music Hall.
Ahead, the 15 moments that made the show unforgettable.

Description of the book "Premier League: A History in 10 Matches":For all the accusations of greed levelled at its well-remunerated players, and the gripe that it is dominated by an elite of wealthy clubs, the Premier League has proved a huge success in footballing and commercial terms since its inaugural season of 1992-3.

Jim White has chosen ten epic clashes to represent the rise and rise PDF of English football's top flight. He evokes the sweat and effort of the matches in thrilling detail, and uses them as a prism through which to view every strand of the premiership's development: he profiles players, managers and owners; charts the ebb and flow of club fortunes in footballing and fiscal terms; and brings to life the turning-points and moments of drama, joy and despair that have punctuated the first 21 years of global football's most watched league.

Relax on a Tropical Beach
The beaches of Margarita Island are exactly what you´d expect from a tropical island paradise. Beautiful white sandy beaches lined with tall palm trees, swaying in the gentle ocean breeze. Spend your Caribbean vacation relaxing on a tropical beach with a cold beverage in hand!
Like other Caribbean tropical islands, the beaches of Margarita Island have umbrella, chair & table hire services so you do not need to bring your own equipment. Nothing worse than struggling with your own umbrella, chairs, table, towels and other stuff as you walk the hot sands of your favorite tropical beach.
Another great service which you will find on just about every Margarita Island tropical beach is food & beverage service.

Eggplant Fries with Marinara Sauce/ carrington fields

Phosphorus 124 mg
Calcium 7 mg

Italian Eggplant

1 tbsp
Rice Flour
1½ cups
Garlic Powder
½ tsp
Onion Powder
½ tsp
Dry Oregano
1 tsp
Dry Basil
1 tsp
Vegetable Oil
Marinara Sauce
1. About an hour before frying, trim ends of each eggplant then slice the long way into four or five thick slices. Leave skins on.
2. Turn and slice again into strips. I got about 30 fries per eggplant. Lay them out flat on your cutting board or counter and sprinkle both sides with the tablespoon of kosher salt.
3. Then let sit for an hour. This will draw out any bitterness. After the hour, place in a bowl and cover with cold ice water.
4. In a large bowl, mix the flour, 1 teaspoon of the sea salt, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano and basil.
5. Place a large pot on the stove and fill half way with the oil. Heat to 345 degrees F using a candy thermometer.
6. This seems like an odd temperature but you actually drop down to 325 degrees F as you fry which is what you want.
7. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. This will be used to keep the fries hot as you cook each batch.
8. Drain the ice water from the eggplant but do not pat dry. While still wet dredge them all in the rice flour mixture and then place on a tray.
9. Cooking in batches, fry for about 4-5 minutes or until they just start to brown. They will not get dark amber like a French fry would but more of a light golden color. Using a spider or strainer, remove to a tray with paper towels and generously sprinkle with the remaining sea salt. Let the oil get back to 345 degrees before starting the next batch.
10. As each batch is cooked, place on a pan and hold in the oven until all the fries have been cooked.

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Oct 20, 2017) - NetworkNewsWire ("NNW"), a multifaceted financial news and publishing company, today announces the publication of an editorial featuring MGX Minerals Inc. (CSE: XMG) (FRANKFURT: 1MG) (OTCQB: MGXMF), a client of NNW that operates as a diversified Canadian resource company developing large-scale mineral portfolios in specific commodities and jurisdictions in North America.
The publication, titled, "World Demand for Lithium Growing Rapidly as Energy Storage Needs Skyrocket," shines a light on the push for electric vehicles, and the various companies set on meeting the growing demand for lithium.
To view the full publication, visit: https://www.networknewswire.com/world-demand-lithium-growing-rapidly-energy-storage-needs-skyrocket/
"MGX Minerals (CSE: XMG) (FRANKFURT: 1MG) (OTCQB: MGXMF), which controls a significant interest in lithium, magnesium and silicon assets that offer streamlined development timelines and low capital expenditures, is directly in line to grow with the booming EV market.
"As MGX Minerals continues to develop its advanced water purification technology, the company is also solving the problem of what to do with the 800 billion gallons of wastewater created annually as petroleum is extracted from the earth. The company's petrolithium process eliminates the need to inject this contaminated wastewater back into the ground, preventing drinking water contamination and possible earthquakes. Instead, as MGX Minerals recovers concentrated lithium and other valuable minerals from the unavoidable wastewater, it leaves a remarkable product behind - clean water. The recent addition of several key oil and gas mining and technology industry veterans to the company's management team continues to solidify MGX's aggressive plan to fuel tomorrow's energy economy today."
About MGX Minerals
MGX Minerals is a diversified Canadian resource and technology company with interests in lithium, magnesium and silicon assets throughout North America. MGX currently owns 34% of PurLucid and has the exclusive right to acquire a 100% interest as well as owning the global rights to recently developed lithium and mineral extraction technologies co-operatively developed by PurLucid and MGX.

Broward Community College faculty members are fuming over an imposed contract that doesn`t give them retroactive pay raises.
The outcry follows a decision by members of BCC`s Board of Trustees to side with the college administration and impose an average raise of 10 percent on the college`s 280 teachers.
But because the raises are not retroactive to July, when the teacher contract expired, the raise is effectively halved. It is the fifth contract to be imposed in five years.
``This whole raise thing is a very vindictive act,`` said Gabriel Milanese, last year`s ``teacher of the year.``
Milanese, who has taught physics for four years on the central campus in Davie, said instructors are more upset about the message the administration is sending than the money.
Administrators have refused to treat faculty members as professionals in the contract talks and other matters, Milanese said.
``The money is not really the problem,`` agreed Doug Clement, a math teacher on the central campus for 21 years. ``The whole idea is a slap in the face of the teachers and the face of collective bargaining.``
Union leaders had asked for raises of 15 percent and were particularly upset that veteran teachers won`t get the lion`s share of the money.
The administration`s salary proposal gives 20 percent raises to new teachers but only 7.25 percent to almost half the teachers previously on staff, union members say.
Administrators say the average is 10 percent for all levels.
James Crosland, the college`s labor attorney, said the raise is a fair one. Teachers should not be surprised the pay hikes aren`t retroactive, because they were warned of that possibility ``from the outset,`` Crosland said.

The state of Florida has a reputation for being, well, pretty weird. As someone who was born and raised in the state, I can say that reputation is pretty well deserved. It seems like every bizarre story you hear on the news comes from somewhere within the borders of the Sunshine State. I'm not exactly sure why that is, maybe the salty beach air and Disney magic make for a dangerous combination.
One thing that makes the state of Florida really unique is its wildlife and their remarkable ability to get a little too close for comfort. Alligators are awesome creatures, but I'd rather not have one in my swimming pool, thank you very much. One Florida man recently experienced this reality when he found a dangerous predator lounging on his front porch. Phil Hendra lives in Fort Myers, and when his dog wouldn't stop barking, he assumed there was a squirrel or cat outside his home. But when he opened the front door, Phil received the surprise of a lifetime.
Waiting outside his front door was a full-grown Florida panther. Scroll down to keep reading and see what happened next.
When Phil saw the panther, his first reaction was to grab his phone and take a picture.
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission
Being a good Florida resident, Phil knew just how rare this incident was. Florida panthers are extremely endangered. In fact, the National Wildlife Federation says there are less than 100 of them left in the wild. He described the incident to the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute and told them:
"[The panther] stayed for about 20 minutes and laid down for a bit. It looked at us inside the window then slowly walked away, and we have not seen it since. My parents have lived here since 1988 and they may have seen a younger panther about two years ago, but nothing compares to this once in a lifetime experience."
The image of the curious panther was posted on social media and soon became an Internet sensation.
Make sure to SHARE this remarkable story with your friends and family.

We now offer two locations to choose from!
Bob and Flo from the plains of Calgary did 7 windy days in a row
Bob and Florence had incredible weather for their 7 day sailing course. February tends to be the windiest and coldest month of the year here in San Carlos but this year was a bit different. Due to the monster el nino we are having this year the water temperature is still hovering around around 70 degrees in shore and the air temperature was in the 70's and sometimes 80's. As you will notice from the pictures we almost never had a jacket on during the whole 7 day course since the wind was not a cold bitter northwesterly like we usually have. Instead we had a very nice warm north and north westerly wind for almost all the days except for the final day which turned out to be the least windy of them all yet we still sailed most of it.
This February we also had far more boats sailing in the bay than we normally have so it was great practice to figure out who was on what tack and thus who had the right away. Bob is looking to purchase a boat down here and we are actively consulting for him to help him find the right boat for him.
I also ran into Bonnie and John at the Marina San Carlos fuel dock , who are also from Canada by the way!! Vive Canada!! Bonnie and John took a three day course with us a few months back and now have gone on to purchase a a boat of their own, Ingenium, which is pictured below. I got a great shot of the calico kitty they have on board!

BONFIELD, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Dec. 16, 2013) - Christmas came early for the families of striking Township of Bonfield workers, thanks to the efforts of their fellow Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) municipal workers from across Ontario.
Over the weekend, a caravan of gift-bearing members of CUPE locals from across the province braved brutal blizzard conditions to ensure every striking Bonfield family would have gifts and a proper holiday dinner.
"When your employer refuses to bargain and resolve your issues, it can seem like the Grinch has stolen Christmas," said Misty Gagne, Chair of CUPE's Ontario Municipal Employees' Coordinating Committee (OMECC), which organized the gift drive and caravan. OMECC is the voice of CUPE members working in the municipal sector in Ontario.
"That's why we planned and organized this event, complete with a 'Roast Beast' supper for everyone to enjoy," she added.
CUPE Locals and individual CUPE members across the province took part in the drive, 'adopting' a striking family and making sure there were gifts for everyone. Most of the gifts and gift-givers were then loaded up on the big, pink CUPE 966 (Region of Peel Municipal Workers) bus.
On arrival, a community feast was held, courtesy of CUPE Local 416 (City of Toronto outside workers), who provided the tools and the beast for a pig roast, and there was even a visit from Santa Claus.
The 16 employees of the Township of Bonfield, members of CUPE 4616, went on strike August 1 after the Township refused to withdraw major concessions that would, if accepted, put good jobs in the community at risk.
"This strike has been tremendously difficult for our members and their families, but the incredible support-both from the community and from our CUPE sisters and brothers across Ontario-has been overwhelming," said CUPE Ontario President Fred Hahn, who accompanied the caravan to Bonfield.
"OMECC's amazing work-especially by Michelle Osborne, who coordinated our work from her home community of Peterborough, will not soon be forgotten," he added.
